This third installment is indeed good and for a few key reasons:
1. We have a new protagonist in the form of Alex instead of Kevin. (Which is fine to bet perfectly honest.)
2. Instead of seeing 2 criminals like Harry and Marv, we get to see 4 like Peter, Burton, Earl and Alice.
3. (Last but definitely not least) The Traps. What's a Home Alone movie without traps, right?
Sure it may not hold the candle like it's first and second installments, but at least it still retains what Home Alone is supposed to be: A kid battling against criminals by using ingenious traps to keep them at bay... while waiting for the police to catch them. Nuff said.
